MAGA is inciting a pogrom against legal Haitian immigrants

The American right is inciting a pogrom against Haitian immigrants in Ohio​

The people of Springfield, Ohio, are enduring bomb threats, hate and vandalism because of xenophobic smears

Wed 18 Sep 2024

Does it even matter that the Haitian immigrants who have flocked to Springfield, Ohio, are in the country legally? Does it matter that Springfield, once a depressed post-industrial Rust belt town like so many others, has been economically revitalized by their arrival? Does it matter that the immigrants from Haiti fled violence and economic deprivation in their own country that are the outcome of American policy? Does it matter that none of the bizarre lies that have been peddled about them by Donald Trump, JD Vance and others on the right, telling lurid tales of the migrants capturing and killing local pets, are true?

Two elementary schools in Springfield had to be evacuated because of threats of violence. Think about that: someone contacted Springfield authorities and made threats against grade-school children that were credible enough that the buildings had to be evacuated for the sake of safety.

Haitian immigrants in Springfield told news outlets that they were afraid to leave their homes. There were reports of broken windows and acid thrown on cars. There is a word for this kind of large-scale, organized violence against a local ethnic enclave. That word is pogrom.

Is a pogrom a recipe for BBQ pets?

Trump says he’s going to Springfield, the mayor says, no thanks!

Trump says he’s going to Springfield, the mayor says, no thanks!

Perhaps Trumps response should be, 'fuck you mayor, I'm going to talk to the people of Springfield.'

 

[NiftyNiblick]

Even if it comprises 70 million plus people.
MAGA is a criminal organization and must be completely purged.

Whatever means used is totally justified by the required end.

Pogrom is a word only educated people are aware of.

I think the mayor is a Republican, no?

The average age of MAGA morons is what, about 75 years old? Hopefully they will die off, and when Trump's dead in a couple years from a heart attack, MAGA will fade without a cult leader.

So is Mittens Romney, adam kissinger, and both cheneys.
Your point?

So you admit this is the first time in our lives we have seen the Elder Statesmen of one party come out in opposition to the nominee of their own party.

That is unprecedented.

Yes, he is.

You're just anti-racist when it suits you. Your support for the Jewish genocide in Gaza is a matter of record.

You a Russian asset?

The people of springfield would welcome President Trump ... There is an investigation going on... And their city government is right in the thick of it...

I am so illiterate, I did not know what the word pogrom was!

FTFY

Hopefully.
But I still see young MAGAts from out of town in their pickup trucks,
with their neck beards and adjustable back [never fitted] caps,
and here in Massachusetts, it's inexplicably illegal to shoot them.

Don't ask me why.
